Renewable Energy

See Report (EN)/(FR)

The Republic of Moldova has a vast potential for renewable energy - one of the largest in the region, being ready to play an important role in addressing energy challenges both nationally and internationally. Whether it is the untapped potential, the investment climate or the opportunities offered, the Republic of Moldova has advantages in the field of renewable energy. There are various reasons why our country is a favorable destination for investments in the RES sector.

The wind energy potential in the Republic of Moldova

The 2017 International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) report, Cost-competitive renewable energy's production: Southeast Europe Potential, stated that wind power could supply up to 21 Gigawatts (GW ) energy capacity, much of which can be used at normalized electricity cost (LCOE) below 90 EUR / MWh - the maximum level at which the report considers that potential to be competitive in terms of costs.
